Re: (OT) - Static electricity grounding device?



I agree with the info below. May I pass on another hint I was given
many years ago. Before you start work, spit on your hands and rub
them together.   Some people's skin is very dry, and you want it to
be slightly conductive.  It also convinces the electronics that you
mean business. ;-)
